Inès Longevial paints women with a romantic tenderness and bold strength

We are in romantic cahoots with the dramatic and beautiful paintings of French artist and illustrator Inès Longevial.

Living and working in Paris, Inès has been painting for as long as she can remember. Taking inspiration from the classics like Picasso and Matisse, and reminiscing on her childhood memories spent painting in the French countryside, her resulting style is tender and romantic, yet strong and bold. She’s come a long way since her time spent with her pencils as a small child, being commissioned now by the likes of Nike, Levis, The New Yorker, Heineken and...

We're in love with professional goofball Will Bryant's colourful and exuberant illustrations

Will Bryant is an illustrator, artist, designer and self-proclaimed professional goofball. Growing up in Texas with a mad passion for sports, his story isn’t the norm for most creatives. His love for sport dominated everything and, until he got to college, the only times Will picked up a pencil was to draw the occasional team uniform and shoe fan art. Taking a foundational graphic design class at Mississippi State University with Kate Bingaman-Burt as his teacher changed everything, and before he knew it Will was cutting stencils and using fabric blow pens to make bootleg band t-shirts.

Coco Fernandez finds freedom in joyous line work and embracing of imperfections

Coco Fernandez finds freedom in joyous line work and embracing of imperfections

Spanish artist Coco Fernandez has our hearts aflutter with her dreamy, Fauvist-inspired, abstract drawings. Working across the realms of painting, pottery, fashion and photography, her work is recognisable for its blocky colour patterns, delicate, emotive line work, and integration of the female form.

Drawing has always been an important part of Coco’s life, but she always struggled with her own expectations of precision and exactness with fine, detailed drawings. A true perfectionist, she was left feeling frustrated and disappointed in her abilities. It wasn’t until she stumbled across Picasso, whose animal drawings inspired her to practice...
